Customer Reviews
Just Howard
Would be a five star rating if you would get rid of Mannix and just have Howard only on both days
Howard Beck is great but ..

Best NBA coverage
I love this show. These two are dynamic, well versed, and knowledgeable, professionally, currently and historically in all things NBA. My favorite podcast hands down. Thank you to all that work with dedication to bring this podcast to the church of NBA basketball
